Our Services
We provide support to vulnerable BIPOC populations and other marginalized groups to break cycles of historical disadvantages through our health equity work.
BIPOC Community Health Worker Training
All families and individuals can thrive with access to education, information, and resources. We aim to empower with a spectrum of supportive services tailored to the unique needs of our community members. From wraparound support services to employment training and community-centered programming such as emergency preparedness, we offer a comprehensive toolkit for everyone. Our services can include First Aid & CPR/AED training, OHP enrollment, emergency preparedness, employment readiness, CHW Training, and referrals to other organizations customized to the community’s needs.
Mobile Community Health Center
Our 40-foot mobile unit symbolizes Greater Northwest Community Health Collective's commitment to serving the community through our agility and responsiveness. It brings essential services, training, and activities directly into high-need neighborhoods in Multnomah County. This community space on wheels allows us to increase our effectiveness through a culturally specific and responsive focus from community health workers reflective of and from the communities we serve.
Environmental Justice
For decades, low-income people of color have practiced skills and used tools aimed at reuse and sustainability before those terms became trendy. We can all engage in environmental advocacy in our homes and become advocates for equal protection against environmental harms, pollution, and toxins in our communities while sharing the equitable distribution of environmental benefits.
Housing Support
We help people secure affordable housing, understand their housing rights, and understand the importance of being responsible tenants. Knowing your rights can lead to long-term housing stability. We provide wraparound supportive services to help tenants maintain secure, safe, and affordable housing.
